Darissa
Meaning of Darissa
Darissa dances right into the heart with its warm Latin roots—born from the ancient dare, “to give,” and crowned with a lyrical –issa flourish that whispers “gifted one.” She brings to mind sunlit plazas, vibrant fiestas, and the sweet promise of childhood wonder. Choosing Darissa feels like handing your daughter a name that sparkles with generosity and a spirit ready for adventure. Though still rare—only 13 little Darissas arrived in the U.S. in 2024, hovering near the 900s in popularity—her gentle rise shows families crave something unique yet timeless. With every joyful utterance—duh-RISS-uh—it leaves a melodic echo of hope, warmth and that unmistakable Latin flair.
